So basically there are the Thrustmaster and Virpil? I’ve research a bit and it looks like that Virpil can attach some joysticks. What is the advantages or Virpil over Thrustmaster? And is Virpil easy to maintain and repair? They are quite expensive. Thank you for your help.

Hi all, One of those post requiring help in determining a new hardware setup. For some years now I've been running on a MSFS 2, Saitek X52 throttle and Saitek pedals. Now the Saitek throttle just died after 15 years of good service. For some reason the PC does not initialize the unit. I am just wondering what you guys recommend for a good throttle and what should I get for a good joystick? I noticed that there are a few more brands lately but I am an old guy and don't follow much of that lately, can you guys help me please? Kind regards,

Why the internet is broken? Because everyone seems to write "things" like facts. I laugh my self out reading some "things" around here about helicopters.

I rather prefer you post pone the release of Kiowa and have it like it should behave than to have a disappointment like Gazelle's one. So, thanks for you hard work and continue with it. Regards.

Thank you! :pilotfly:

Hi guys, Here is my participation.

Ka-50 V3 is on hold... :( No new Ka-50 in 2020. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4491826&postcount=1780

The original idea of this thread was to know more about the Mi-24 sensor suite. I found a great site, although it is in Portuguese, with a lot of details and an amazing Revell build. https://www.spmodelismo.com.br/howto/he/progress/progress04.01.php Specifically the sights/sensors. Does anyone have more information about Mi-24P and its sensor suite/sights? Thank you.

I am affraid that the symbology scale and resolution is realistic but because we are using a monitor, it looks small and unreadable. I tend to make some view points for the MFDs to quickly zoom in.

Hi all, Any information about how the player will interact with the Gunners sight? Will it be a head movement based sight or a full view sight, or both? Thank you very much. Regards

Hi all, Does the RADAR (missiles, aircrafts) gets blocked by buildings and other obstructions like trees in DCS? I normally fly in NOE with helicopters, masking in buildings and trees, but I always get hit by a AMRAAM or Phoenix... even if I am really low on the ground. So, does it block it and prevents the locks or not? Thank you. Regards

You guys are right, all helicopters wooble a bit, but those Mi-24 wooble a lot! In the R44 I flew the tail wooble like mad at idle power. But on the AS365, that was not really noticeable. But depending on the aircraft, even the same type would produce different woobles and vibrations, I flew a few AS350, more than 9, and there were some that wooble more than others. The rotor system of 350 and 365 is alike. Never flew the Puma or Super Puma. Also, it can be the fact that the axis of the main rotor shaft on the Mi-24 2,5° tilted to the right. It can also help producing those woobles.

I tested EXP modes, but I was expecting a much better resolution as you had initially. Is this how it is in the aircraft? Also, I am having a lot of o trouble locking radar in GMT mode.

Thank you for having the time. :thumbup:

I miss seeing those jets in the late 80's, early 90's. :cry: Today stuff is way too stealthy.

I was expecting more of the podcast. It was just general information. What do you guys think?

Ok, now we are almost having a OH-58, can we already have a AH-64? Hunter killer missions!

Not every helicopter (Hind) wobble like that. It seems to be either that the cyclic is not centered or the rotor is not balanced. But every video I see, you see the Hind wobble like mad. xD

Really really good. Congrats!

The title says it all. An AI gunner like Jester would be great. Greater than even in the F-14 because the Hind is a simpler machine than the F-14. Thanks.

Hi, What is the point of having all those weapons, if you have a certain composition of ships or SAMs and it is impossible to kill whatever... Units are pretty invincible right now. They just send a volley of SAMs and all the weapons are destroyed. Mavericks, JSOW, LDs, HARMs, Harpoon, all defeated with really high kill rates. So, what is the point then of having all these weapons if nothing happens to enemy defenses? Not even a radar turned off... Can you please help me understand how to employ these weapons? Thank you.

Is it sometimes hard to achieve those manual values in RL. Sometimes you have to descend to get those, and you have other effects. But what is the point? Is saying that because the F16 does not reach a certain Mach number its engine is underpowered? ... Useless use of internet space OP.

Can you please implement a way to uninstall multiple modules? It is a pain to uninstall one by one. We have the ability to install multiple modules by checkboxes, can you implement the same for uninstalling? Thank you. Kind regards.
